Hi, I'm Marcos Avellan, and we're gonna cover how speed affects fighting. As the say, speed kills, and we're gonna cover the different ways to use speed to your advantage in a fight. The benefits of speed in a fight is tremendous. The faster opponent to get his punches landing there first, and on top of that, if you have a good understanding of how to use speed, you can use it to fake out your opponents. For instance, most people are used to somebody coming one-two one-two with a very even tempo, but if I go one-two and a pause and then one-two, okay, just that little break in the speed and the tempo of the combination will throw an opponent off, while they're there blocking waiting for that next punch, and it doesn't come, when they peek their head out , they get hit. And that's how we use speed in fighting.
